On May 5, high-end apartments in the port area.

Akihara Hiroto received a call from Kawai Shinta, and after greeting the results of the previous trial, the two chatted about Akihara Hiroto's new serial.

"Akihara, the "Dban Murder Incident" you wrote is more like a Biange school work than the original work." Shinta Kawai said hesitantly.

In his opinion, such a work is not enough if he wants to convince the radicals of Benge.

After listening to this explanation, Akihara Hiroto felt speechless.

"D Saka Murder Incident" is the work of Edogawa Ranpo. In his previous life, he was the founder of the detective genre known as the neon "Benge School".

I didn't expect that even his works were considered as degeneracy if they were mixed with some bizarre content.

It seems that the genre division in this world is more harsh than in the previous life.

Hiroto Akihara pondered for a while, then explained: "Chairman Kawai, I will bring a manuscript to the association next week, please have a look."

It seems that if I don't come up with better works, I will die.

In this case, let's take out the classic work called "Astrological Murder (Magic)", which is called the immortal work of Xinbenge.

……

That afternoon, he called Toyama Miho, and asked the other party to write it down while dictating the content.

The content of the book "Astrological Murder (Magic)" is extremely cumbersome and the plot is very complicated, and it is even called too much water, but its biggest advantage is that it is ingenious in the setting of tricks.

Compared with other works of Benge School, there are no cumbersome mechanisms and trivial narrations, but it is open and closed, unconstrained and unconstrained, and the murder methods are beyond imagination.

The story tells the notes of a painter named "Umezawa Heiji". In this note, he plans to kill 6 girls, 4 of which are his daughters and 2 are his nieces.

He had to dismember six people to piece together a so-called pinnacle of art - Asold.

Asold is actually the famous Philosopher's Stone in alchemy.The Philosopher's Stone has another name, which is "the stone of the sky".

According to this title, Umezawa Heiji thought of astrology, because there is a saying in astrology that the skin of the human body is the reflection of the universe, and it is also a model for the shrinking of the universe.

The combination of human body parts is the reappearance of the "Stone of the Sky", that is, the Philosopher's Stone.

The composition of this stone is inseparable from the five parts of the human body, namely the head, chest, abdomen, waist, thighs, and calves.

But after writing this note, something happened, that is, "Umezawa Heiji" himself died in the secret room.

After his death, the eldest daughter was also murdered and was found dead with residues inside.Immediately afterwards, the other five sisters also died one after another, and they were all dismembered and thrown in different places.

This makes the protagonist confused, who killed them, and who threw the corpses?

At this moment, the clues began to be revealed one by one, and finally led to the real murderer and his method.

That is, the murderer is Tokiko Umezawa, who was originally considered a "victim".

She first killed her father Umezawa Heiji by changing her shoes (women's shoes changed into men's shoes to create an alibi), then killed her eldest sister, and put the secretions she got from sleeping with others into her body, without causing any harm. J kills.

In the end she killed the other four separately.

By dividing different parts of each person and "misplaced splicing", she used the corpses of 5 people to pretend to be 6 people, and pretended that she was "dead".

In that era, this method can be said to be seamless.

Umezawa Toko's motive for killing was because she was the daughter of her father and his ex-wife, and was squeezed out by other sisters.

After discovering that her mother's precious belongings were disposed of by her elder sister at will, she decided to take revenge.

And her purpose of killing people is to meet a smart person who can discover her own method of solving crimes and fall in love with him.

But in the end, she didn't wait for such a person.

So at the end of the story, Umezawa Tokiko, who escaped legal punishment, committed suicide by taking arsenic after leaving a letter.

……

The full text of "Astrological Murder (Magic)" is 18 words long, but Hiroto Akihara can only recall the main content, so he had to compress it.

By the time Miho Toyama finished writing, the manuscript of this book had been compressed to 13 words.

Hiroto Akihara felt a little helpless after reading the manuscript. He could only remember the main line, so he couldn't reproduce all the content.

I remember that in the previous life, this book also told a branch of the story of the police and the search for someone, but this part seemed to be "slammed" by many people as irrelevant, so he didn't include it when retelling it.

"Master, you are really amazing!" Toyama Miho looked at Akihara Yuto who had finished checking the manuscript, showing admiration.

In her opinion, Hiroto Akihara was able to directly conceive such a work with a grand conception and amazing technique without drafting and outline!

Simply unbelievable!

In particular, the method of disassembling 5 corpses and disguising them as 6 people is even more unexpected!

This trick is not complicated, but no one has ever thought of it this way!

Not only that, while designing tricks, this book also adopts a lot of astrology and alchemy knowledge, and combines astrology, alchemy, and reasoning to give readers a different feeling.

While secretly admiring her, she thought of another question that didn't make sense.

My master thought of this trick, could it be related to his encounter with the attack this time?

Isn't it often said that the closer a person is to death, the more he will have different views on life and death?

[Chapter 246.245 Works across eras]

On May 5th, Hiroto Akihara came to the Mystery Writers Association with the written "Astrological Murder Case".

In Kawai Shinta's office, he handed over the manuscript in his hand to the other party.

"Chairman Kawai, this is a work I have already written, please correct me."

Kawai Shinta took the manuscript and subconsciously glanced at Akihara Yuto.

He felt that Hiroto Akihara wrote this manuscript a little too hastily. After all, he had just released other works before, but now he started creating again.

But because Hiroto Akihara had a precedent, he didn't say much, but looked down carefully with suspicion.

But when he looked at it, he was immersed in it, and was completely shocked by the trick design inside.

As the vice president of the Reasoning Association, he is also a representative of Benge's moderate faction, and he is familiar with Benge's works on the market.

After a lot of reasoning, he can probably guess the murderer and the method used to solve the case.

But this book, he read it for a long time and didn't know who the murderer was.

Because compared with ordinary Benge works, the plot and tricks of this "Astrological Murder" are too complicated and huge.
